ion that It is directed against German
doslgns in the Far East while the

GREAT PARADE IN DENVER
Many Fall Out of Line-Exhausted
and Watch Sturdier Comrades.
Ex - Confederate Creates
Applause With Flag.
DENVER, Sept 6. The main event of
the Grand Army Encampment was the
grand parade which occurred today. To
the veteran the prlvilegd'of again keeping
in step with comrades of the bivouac of
'61 is one for which no hardship seems too
great . to' undergo, no order too sovere to
undertake. Many who marched the two
miles today were exhausted when the
end was reached, and many others, weak
ened by age, fell out of line long beforo
the Journey was completed. These tot
tering old veterans, regretting their inabil
ity to remain in the parade and giving ev
ery evidence of their feelings, would
be cared for by the persons nearest at
hand, led to a place where they could
rest and recover from their exhaustion,
it was a common slzht to see a gray
haired old soldier sitting on the curbing
gazing wistfully at his more sturdy com
rades as they passed him by.
Tho ovation given the marchers was un
stinted. The streets were packed with
people, and the windows and roofs of
buildings along the line of march
swarmed with humanity. The cheering
was continuous, and the grizzled old war
riors were kept busy bowing acknowl
edgments 'and raising their hats in cour
teous salute. The column formation for
the great parade was as follows:
Order of March.
Platoon of mounted police.
George "W. Cook band and drum corps.

Light showers had fallen during the
night, but the weather cleared this morn-.
Jng, and the annual Grand Army parade
has never taken place under more favor
able auspices.
Arrangement Most Perfect.
Three hours were consumed by the pro
cession in pansing the grandstand. Col
onel Harper Morchood. chairman of the
. parade committee, estimated that 1S.O00
members of the Grand Army participated
In the parade Kansas carried off the
honors for the largest representation,
having nearly 2500 men in Use.
The most perfect arrangements portble
for communication and emergency service
were provided. Telephone station? were
placed along the route of march and phy
sicians were In attendance every block or
so. A horseman was unseated by his
frlghtoned mount and In falling broke a
finger. A surgeon stationed near by had
nsen the accident and the man was
astride his animal and in line again
before the procesoSon had progressed two
blocks from where the accident occurred.
General Donaldson, of St Louis, was
stricken with heart failure, and was car
ried to a hospital 'in an ambulance. His
recovery is doubtful.
Ex-Rebel Waves Union Flag.
There were many interesting features
connected with the parade, but perhaps
the most impressive was the appearance
of an ox-Confederate soldier in the gray
uniform of his fighting days. ' A great
cheer rent the air an he stood alone in a
carriage waving the Stars and Stripes and
bowing to the multitude
Both the National Encampment of the
G. A. R. and the annual meeting of the
Woman's Relief Corps will open tomor
row morning.
Numerous schemes for entertaining the
hoots of visitors were worked out by the

to Mr. Travis, but he took no action."

Employing Printers Solid Against
Demand of Union.
NIAGARA FALLS, N. Y., Sept 6. The
United Typo the La e of America continued
Its convention here today. The one ab
sorbing topic of discussion and conversa
tion was the demand of the printers for
the eight-hour day. The convention Is
solidly opposed to the demand. There
seems to be no sign of weakening tho
position of the executive committee taken
yesterday, namely, not to grant the eight
hour day under present conditions.
This afternoon a telegram from J. TV.
Sramwood, secretary of the eight-hour
committee of tho International Typo
graphical Union, announced that Presi
dent Lynch and Vice-President Hayes, of
the eight-hour committee, would be in
Niagara Falls tomorrow. It was resolved

shot and a riot narrowly averted last
night during a meeting of tho Progres
sive Marble Polishers' Union. Con
flicting stories of the shooting are
told by members, but the police ar
rested a walking delegate, whom they
charged with felonious assault on
Francisco Valentin
The trouble, it is said, arose over the
attempt of the Italian clement In the
union, of which Valentir posed as a
leader, to oust the walking delegate.
Refuse to Accept Arbitration.
NEW YORK. Sept 6. The Amalgamat
ed Sheet Metal Wofkors. who are on a
strike In this city for an Increase of
wages, decided at a mass meeting last
night to disregard orders for their return

was Issued by the executive committee of
the general arbitration board of the Build
ing Trades Employes' Association. The
unions declared the strike to be an inex
cusable violation of the arbitration agree
ment It is expected that the employers
will now declare a lockout and endeavor
to nil the strikers places.

assisting to keep out of Postmaster
General Payne's annual report of May.

NEW RULING AT STANFORD
Students Without Diplomas Will
Have to Stnnd Examination.
STANFORD UNIVERSITY. Cal.. Sept.
6. A new regulation that will affect
the graduates of a number of High
Schools and private preparatory
schools In the state of California and
other states from which Stanford Uni
versity receives Its students, was an
nounced tonight from the office of the
register of the university. Hereafter
no students will be admitted to the
university without examination, unless
they can show a diploma from some
preparatory school which gives a four
year course.
In California there are not many of
this kind, but In Oregon and Nevada
there are a large number from which
many students come to Stanford every
year. Many of Stanford's mcJst prom
inent men have in the past come from
Portland, Or., and as the new rule will
Interfere with every preparatory school
In Portland. It is feared that many
good men will now turn from Stanford
to other universities where entrance
is easy. The reason for putting this
new regulation into practice Is to
maintain the policy of the university
toward a smaller student-body.
NOT HURT JYTHE TAINT
But Mission Board Admits Rocke
feller Row Affected Receipts.
BOSTON. Sept 6. The American
Board of Commissioners for Foreign
Missions has completed Its accounts for
Its business year and. in antlcpatlon of

statement:
The total receipts for the year amount to
JS12.149. With the exception of two yeari.
when' Urge debts have been paid, this la the
greatest ran the board has ever received In
one year. In view of the falling- off In lepa
c!e durlnr recent years. It Is noticeable that
there has been a rain of about $30,000 from
that source during 1WH-03. Aside from the
receipts from the auxiliary women's board.
. there has been also a caln In donations
' ffftm AiifkIi.. imA Inill.Mn.l.
On account of certain emergencies and un
usual conditions In the foreign fields and the
Inevitable growth of a. prosperous work, the
expenditures for the board hare been con
siderably above those of former yeari, so
that the account closes with a deficit or
S1S8.S27. It U expected that this will be
somewhat reduced by payments from th
auxiliary societies within a few weeks.
"While the controversy over the acceptance
of tho gift from John D. Rockefeller has
probably affected the receipts of the board
In some measure, the Interest of the pastors
and church members In the work of the
board Is said to be on the Increase and the
officials look forward to the next year with
confidence.

running. The second mate, purser and 15
seamen put out in the first lifeboat for
Constitution for aid, but never returned.
All night the seas dashed over the
Tropic and the 20 men on board momen
tarily expected the end. Morning brought
hope in the sight of men on shore, but
there seemed to bo no way to get to the
ship. The captain, with a kite, sent a

hawser was landed. On this the men went
ashore. When the storm abated some
what the vessel was found to be undam
aged. A naval court exonerated the cap
